    Someone I know has been having an affair with her neighbour he promised loads of stuff and moved out.

    Now he has ended it claiming via text (what a man) because she got !!!!y this only happened when he messed her about.

    She feels bad and wants to let his partner now why he moved out and how he treated both of them badly.

    She will do it anon of course.

    I don't think it is good idea. But she thinks it is.

    So she gets treated badly and in order to get some sort of revenge or closure or whatever she expects to get from this she decides that telling the wife, who is innocent in all this, is the best option?

    She cheated on the wife as much as the husband did. By going through with the affair she's played a huge part in what could be a lot of hurt for the wife.

    She knew what she was doing. She deserves all the karma she gets. If she goes ahead and tells the wife I only hope she gets even more :)

    She's hurting so she wants everyone else to hurt? She won't get any pleasure from doing so. She'd be better to try keep what little dignity she has left.

    To be honest, If I was the wife...I would rather know.


    But she is planning on doing it for the wrong reasons. She is no better than him and she will be found out in the end for what she is.

    She got hurt and now wants someone else to hurt too!!! Tell her to grow up and take some responsibility for her actions, she was every bit as much to blame as him!!

    Sorry if that sounds a bit extreme but it's a fact!

    Nope, I agree with the others. Seems like it's a unanimous POV!

    You don't go near someone who is already spoken for and if you do sink that low, you don't cry when you end up burnt. She made a choice to get into bed with a man who couldn't be truly hers. If his marriage were that bad, he would have left it already; if he met the OW and fell for her, he'd have asked her to wait while he got his house in order. And he didn't.
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.

    When the wife asks him who he'd been having an affair with and shows him the letter ... what makes her think he isn't going to tell the truth? How easy will she find being neighbours with this woman after she knows about the affair?

    I can see both POV.

    I told her she is trying to get back at him for ending it. she said that is not the case and she feels for the partner. According to her, he had on a couple of occasions said that he was going to tell his partner because him and her had argument.

    My feeling is that if would not admit to his partner that he was having affair why would he say that who it was with. And the fact that he ended the affair over text he is a bit of gutless wonder.

    She knows she did wrong and feels like !!!! about. If it makes some of you feel any better about what horrible person she is. She has lost a lot of weight and does not sleep at night because of it.

    I know personally I would like to know. Rather than hold some rose tinted view over the relationship. And if he has done it once how many other times has he done it before.

    Yours

  • If she "feels for the partner", why in the heck would she sleep with this persons bloke in the first place?!
